In a biology lab, 500 bacteria reproduce by splitting, every hour, on the hour, each bacterium splits into two bacteria. In the table, write an expression for each hour (t) to show how to find the number of bacteria. Explain your answer

Atype of plant is introduced into an ecosystem and quickly begins to take over. a scientist counts the number of plants after mmonths and develops the equation p(m)= 19.3(1.089)^m to model the situation. most recently, the scientist counted 138 plants.assuming there are no limiting factors to the growth of the plants, about how many months have passed since the plants werefirst introduced? a)o 6.1b)0.6.6c)10 72d)o 23.1
